Thanks to Tom and the team for getting this up.

Scott Cairney Interview on Commerce Server Mojave

Scott Cairney being interviewed about Microsoft Commerce Server Mojave at Tech-Ed Barcelona.About Scott Cairney - Scott Cairney is a Commerce Server Veteran and key player in the creation of Commerce Server Mojave.  He has been deeply involved with Commerce Server since Commerce Server 2000.  Scott is currently a Product Manager in the Commerce Server Product Group and Vice-President Product Management at Cactus

Scott on Mojave at Tech-Ed - Scott recently took a European holiday ;) presented a couple of sessions at Tech-Ed Barcelona.  I have been unable to find these sessions online (unlike the Mojave PDC session).  However, Mark Dunn of .NET Rocks interviewed Scott about Mojave while at Tech-Ed and this is online.  You can Watch Scott Cairney and Mark Dunn discuss Commerce Server MojaveNote: The interview is available in other formats.  For the links, go to the Tech-Ed Tech-Talks page and search for "Commerce Server" (there is no direct link to the interview page!).

Scott on Commerce Server Mojave Feedback - Given the wholesale API change in Mojave, I am very interested to hear what people think about it.  Apparently Tech-Ed participants had plenty of feedback, as Scott says in the interview:

"We did get a lot of feedback... We got some terrific feedback.  We got some negative feedback.  We got feedback saying it is too generic, some people are saying it is not generic enough.  So we think it's great, the fact that there is now a discussion of Commerce Server."

I agree.  It is exciting to be getting a major new rev of Commerce Server and it will be fun to discover and talk about.  I mean, not as exciting as white water rafting, or sticking your tongue in an electric socket, but you know what I mean. 

Have you looked at Mojave yet?  What are your thoughts?

PS Tom Schultz just announced the Commerce Server Mojave November CTP drop.  Download does not seem to work for me :(
